The man in the street gets really confused when top rank politicians make apparently contradictory plays but if they thought of it as a strategy game with limited information against people also capable of bluffing they might realise what the politician is actually doing. In fact, the board game diplomacy is a good practical introduction to this kind of negotiation scenario.

For instance, just the idea of the anti-lockdown marches was counter-productive: UK government explicitly said they made the regs tougher in anticipation of protest. At least if protests hadn't then happened the regs would be less tough next time. But they did happen because protest precludes cunning.

@mixed_biscuits Its an educational talk given by someone who’s not involved with the protest, about the history behind the 1968 Columbia protests, at the encampment at Columbia. The organization the speaker’s affiliated with doesn’t necessarily hold protest in high esteem. I’m not sure what else you’re getting at?
